CHECKMATE

Marriage Without Love

Amanda was still standing at the door of their apartment. He looked away with a blank look. I don't know what he's thinking, surely his brain is not able to think clearly this time. Ask herself if her marriage should be this complicated.

What happened to Bastian, before marriage, they had agreed to hide their status. Then why is he angry now? Amanda breathed as much air as she wanted, then moved into her apartment. He needs to calm down, getting away from Bastian seems better. She saw her husband sitting quietly on the living room couch. It seemed that the man was still angry, he ate Amanda sharply without the slightest smile.

"Where are you going? Explain to me all this Manda, who I am to you" Bastian shouted in a furious tone

But Amanda didn't care about her husband, he stepped into her room. Still faintly heard the voice of her husband, calling out his name. Amanda needs to calm down, she needs time to think things through.

"Where are you going? Your husband's angry, and you're out. What kind of wife are you! Or do you want to see that guy?" bastian said still in a furious tone, as he watched Amanda leave

Amanda was still silent, she was stringing the right word for a human who soon changed form in front of her.

"Bastian, we're not okay. We are both emotional, I want to calm down. It's not a good time to talk about this,"

"Lied you! You want to calm yourself down where, huh! You want to see that guy again, right? Don't try to fool me Manda,"

"I don't understand why you're upset Bas, Billy doesn't know anything about us. You don't deserve to scold her like that,"

"Keep you defending that jerk Manda. You know what his mistake was? It's because she loves you, she loves you who's already the wife of people. You're my wife Manda, only mine,"

"Ck, as long as you know he knows me first on your appeal. It's not wrong if he loves me, Bas. You have no right to ban it!"

"Ck, yes you are my husband. We can be called husband and wife Bas, but there's no love in it. Don't be too proud of that status,"

Amanda's words are enough to make Bastian silence 'SKAKMAT'. It was an impossible reality for him to deny. They live together without any love in them. But Amanda is his wife, that's all he's got. He did not understand what feelings he had for the woman. All this time he's been pretty comfortable living with Amanda.

"Why did you shut up Bas, you just realized, huh? You, as my husband, have you ever said that you love me."

"Is there ever a desire for you to introduce myself to your co-workers, that I am your wife. Answer me Bas?"

"Don't you know what I've been doing all this time Amanda. I have done my responsibility well. Is it less to state everything?"

"Ck, everyone can also do that Bas. Without the status of a husband as well, Billy can do that. If you really love me, you should deny Billy's words, and explain everything to him. Explain to him who we really are, not even acting like this,"

Once again, Amanda's words made Bastian's heart grimace. Like dozens of daggers piercing his heart. Everything was true, he himself did not acknowledge their relationship. Then on what basis he sued his wife, to acknowledge her as her husband.

"All is clear Bas, there is no love in our marriage. If you don't want to clarify our relationship, then don't ever expect me to do that" Amanda said.

He was relieved that everything in his heart had been said. She left her husband, who was still standing. It didn't matter whether the man was angry or crying. Whatever
